Top 10 Films Ever As Voted By You
Here's the top 10 films ever as chosen by the followers of On This Day in Film, thank you all for your submissions.
 No.9. The Dark Knight (2008)The youngest film on this list and already a classic. Heath Ledger's performance and Christopher Nolan's rejuvenation of the Batman franchise give The Dark Knight a deserved place on this list. |  No.9. The Empire Strikes Back (1980)There had to be a Star Wars film on here, and here is the only one. Episode V is one of two sequels on this list and is often thought of as the best of the Star Wars franchise. |
|---|---|
 No.8. Forrest Gump (1994)Maybe a surprise for some but Tom Hank's performance in this now 20-year-old movie is a crowd favourite, and with 6 Oscars, the Academy might agree. |  No.7. E.T. (1982)A surprise for us this one. E.T. is an expected favourite for a list of children's movie but to grab no.7 on this list is a bit of a shock. Nevertheless, a good film and always perfect for a rainy Sunday. |
 No. 6. Citizen Kane (1941)The critics' favourite is also one of yours. A film that is often seen as overrated by many film buffs today, but its Welles' technical innovation keeps it coming back. It is also the oldest film on this list, now 73 years old. |  No.5. The Godfather: Part II (1974)The highest place sequel on the list and regarded by many as the best sequel ever to have been made. So many good performances and such a great storyline makes this a must for any top 10. |
 No. 4. Casablanca (1942)Hollywood's finest, Casablanca is an amazing film with all the necessary musts for any classic Hollywood films. It follows many of the formulas but it does so with such panache that it is always popular with any cinephile, and so a place at no.4 is fitting. |  No.3. 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)An extraordinary piece of cinema. Kubrick's film is perhaps one of the most cinematic films of all time. If you haven't seen it on the big screen, do so, you won't regret it. |
 No.2. The Godfather (1972)So many film lovers favourite is just pipped at the post for this poll. The classic always ends up in these canons and is clearly a deserved second place. |  No.1. Pulp Fiction (1994)Now 20 years old, Pulp Fiction is your top film of all time, and it's a choice hard to argue with. A perfect mix of pop culture and cinema, with sharp dialogue, great acting, and iconic scenes it is a worthy winner. |
